An introduction to online payments
Xendit allows you to accept online payments from your customers wherever they are, e.g. from Jakarta, Medan or Singapore. Your customers can pay you with:
- Bank transfers – your customers can pay into Big 4 banks, this means no transfer fees no matter what bank they are using
- E-wallets – any of Indonesia’s major e-wallets
- Card – debit and credit cards from all over the world
- Over-the-counter payments – Alfamart or Indomaret
Once a customer pays you and the funds are received, you instantly see the balance on your Xendit dashboard, which you can access from your phone or computer. You can then withdraw this to any of your bank accounts.
